Neuroendocrine Cancer – The Expert Patient 43:29

21 hari yang lalu43:29

43:29

The episode features Dr. David Bartlett, a retired GP and neuroendocrine cancer patient, offering a dual perspective as both clinician and patient. Key Learnings from this episode. Patient Experience and Diagnostic Challenges Dr. Bartlett’s symptoms began with severe, intermittent abdominal pain, starting in 2001, but he did not seek medical help for several years due to a combination of stoicism, not wanting to trouble others, and a belief in the commonality of benign causes. Over 15 years, he experienced repeated misdiagnoses, primarily being labeled as having irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) despite atypical features (severe pain, minimal bowel habit change, and no systemic symptoms). Multiple opinions and investigations (including ultrasounds and CT scans) failed to identify the underlying cause, with a key scan being misread by local radiologists. The correct diagnosis of a small bowel neuroendocrine tumour was only made after a tertiary centre re-examined previous scans, highlighting the importance of specialist review and persistence in unexplained cases. Clinical Red Flags and Symptomatology Dr. Bartlett’s case underscores that neuroendocrine tumors can present with isolated, severe abdominal pain without classic red flags (vomiting, weight loss, significant bowel changes)[1]. He retrospectively identified subtle signs of carcinoid syndrome (flushing, one episode of profound diarrhoea, and skin changes), which are present in only about 10% of small bowel neuroendocrine tumour cases. The lack of awareness about neuroendocrine tumors, even among experienced clinicians, contributed to the diagnostic delay[1]. Lessons for Primary Care and Clinicians The story illustrates the risk of anchoring on common diagnoses (like IBS) and the need to reconsider the diagnosis when symptoms are severe, persistent, or atypical. It highlights the value of listening to the patient’s narrative, especially when symptoms do not fit classic patterns, and the importance of considering rare conditions in the differential diagnosis. The episode emphasises the need for ongoing education about neuroendocrine tumours and the importance of keeping rare but serious conditions on the diagnostic radar in primary care. Management Insights Standard treatment for small bowel neuroendocrine tumours often includes monthly somatostatin analog injections (e.g., lanreotide). Surgical intervention may be considered, but it carries specific risks such as carcinoid crisis, requiring specialised perioperative management. The decision for surgery is individualised, weighing potential symptomatic improvement against procedural risks. Systemic and Human Factors Dr. Bartlett’s experience reflects how personal traits (stoicism, reluctance to seek help) and systemic issues (misinterpretation of scans, diagnostic inertia) can delay diagnosis. The narrative also demonstrates the importance of patient advocacy, persistence, and the value of second (or third) opinions, especially in complex or unresolved cases. Educational Value The episode serves as a reminder for clinicians to maintain a broad differential, revisit diagnoses when the clinical picture changes, and to be aware of their own cognitive biases. It also advocates for the inclusion of patient voices in medical education to better understand the lived experience and challenges of rare diseases like neuroendocrine cancer. Summary Table: Key Learnings ThemeKey PointsDiagnostic Delay15 years from symptom onset to diagnosis; misdiagnosed as IBS despite atypical featuresSymptomatologySevere, intermittent abdominal pain; minimal bowel changes; subtle carcinoid syndromeClinical LessonsImportance of specialist review, reconsidering diagnoses, and listening to patient storiesManagementUse of somatostatin analogs; surgery considered but with specific risksSystemic FactorsImpact of stoicism, misread scans, and diagnostic inertiaEducational TakeawayNeed for awareness of rare conditions and patient-centered education These insights from the transcript highlight the complexities of diagnosing and managing neuroendocrine cancer, especially in primary care, and the critical role of patient experience in improving clinical practice.…

Pancreatic Conditions Part 2 – Malignant 43:36

6 weeks yang lalu43:36

43:36

Dr Charlie Andrews talks to Dr John Leeds. John Leeds is a Consultant Pancreaticobiliary Physician and Endoscopist based at the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle and an Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer based in the Population Health Sciences Institute at Newcastle University. He is involved in research in pancreaticobiliary disorders including benign and malignant conditions as well as outcomes from therapeutic/advanced endoscopy. John is a member of the British Society of Gastroenterology and Pancreatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland. He serves on the endoscopy and Pancreas committees for BSG and is the website lead for PSGBI. He is also a founder member of the BSG Pancreas Clinical Research Group which is coordinating research for the society. Key Learnings from this episode: Challenges in Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer • Pancreatic cancer is often diagnosed at an advanced stage due to the deep location of the pancreas and the lack of early symptoms. • Tumors in the body and tail of the pancreas can grow significantly before causing symptoms, often invading major arteries or veins, making them inoperable. • Tumors in the head of the pancreas may present earlier due to bile duct obstruction, leading to jaundice, but even these are often detected late. Early Symptoms and Red Flags • Early symptoms are vague or absent, making early diagnosis difficult. • Possible early indicators include: • Weight loss (often a sign of advanced disease). • New-onset diabetes, particularly in individuals with a normal BMI or without typical risk factors for type 2 diabetes. • Jaundice, which is a significant red flag and often indicates a serious underlying condition. • Classic signs like painless jaundice and Courvoisier’s sign (palpable gallbladder) are important but not always present. Limitations of Current Screening Methods • There is no reliable biomarker or screening test for pancreatic cancer: • CA19-9 is not suitable as a screening tool due to its lack of specificity (elevated in other conditions). • Imaging techniques like CT scans or MRIs are used but have limitations, including incidental findings that may lead to unnecessary anxiety (“scanxiety”) and over-investigation. • Screening is currently limited to high-risk groups, such as those with familial pancreatic cancer syndromes or hereditary pancreatitis. High-Risk Groups for Screening • Familial pancreatic cancer accounts for less than 10% of cases. Criteria for screening include: • Multiple family members with pancreatic cancer, especially diagnosed under age 50–60. • Genetic syndromes like BRCA mutations, familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), and Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. • Hereditary pancreatitis patients have an increased risk but are harder to screen due to pre-existing pancreatic abnormalities. Emerging Research and Future Directions • Studies are exploring potential biomarkers, such as microbiome signatures in the pancreas, which might help identify high-risk individuals in the future. • Trials like the EuroPAC study focus on surveillance protocols for high-risk individuals using imaging techniques like MRI or endoscopic ultrasound. • Research into new-onset diabetes as a potential marker for pancreatic cancer is ongoing but currently has a low yield due to the high prevalence of type 2 diabetes unrelated to malignancy. Considerations for Screening and Surveillance • Screening should be carefully targeted to avoid over-diagnosis and unnecessary investigations. • The psychological impact of screening (e.g., anxiety from incidental findings) must be considered. • Smoking cessation is emphasized as smoking is a significant risk factor for pancreatic cancer. Advances in Treatment Approaches • PET-CT scans are increasingly used to detect systemic disease that might not be evident on standard CT scans. • Neoadjuvant treatments (therapy before surgery) are being explored for cases where systemic spread is suspected. Conclusion Pancreatic cancer remains challenging to detect early due to vague symptoms and limited screening tools. Current efforts focus on identifying high-risk groups for targeted surveillance and advancing research into biomarkers and new diagnostic strategies. Early detection remains critical for improving outcomes, but significant barriers persist.…

IBS Part 2 – Management 45:15

12 weeks yang lalu45:15

45:15

Charlie Andrews talks to Dr Chris Black about the management of IBS. This podcast provides key insights into managing Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), emphasising a multidisciplinary and individualised approach to care. Here are the main takeaways: 1. Multidisciplinary and Integrative Care IBS management requires a holistic, patient-centered approach involving dietitians, behavioral therapists, and gastroenterologists. This "team sport" approach expands treatment options and tailors care to individual patient needs 1 . Integrative care, which combines dietary, psychological, and medical interventions, has been shown to improve symptoms, psychological well-being, and quality of life for IBS patients 1 . 2. Personalised Treatment IBS is not a one-size-fits-all condition. There are different subtypes of IBS (e.g., IBS-D for diarrhea-predominant or IBS-C for constipation-predominant), and treatment must be customized based on the patient's symptoms and triggers 4 . Emerging research suggests the need to identify distinct subtypes of IBS to guide more effective treatments 2 4 . 3. Dietary Management The low FODMAP diet is a widely recommended dietary intervention for IBS. It helps identify food triggers and manage symptoms but should not be used long-term without personalization 3 . Probiotics may also play a role in symptom relief for some patients, though their effectiveness varies 3 . 4. Behavioral Interventions Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and gut-directed hypnotherapy are effective in managing IBS symptoms, particularly when patients are motivated to engage in these therapies 1 . Stress management is critical since stress and anxiety can exacerbate IBS symptoms 1 5 . 5. Pharmacological Therapies Medications are often used as complementary treatments when dietary or behavioral strategies alone are insufficient. These include antispasmodics, laxatives, or medications targeting gut-brain interaction 1 5 . Precision medicine is the future of pharmacological treatment, aiming to match therapies with the underlying causes of an individual's symptoms rather than just addressing the symptoms themselves 1 . 6. Challenges in IBS Management One of the most distressing symptoms for patients is bowel urgency, significantly impacting their quality of life. Research is ongoing to better understand and manage this symptom 2 4 . Pain management remains a critical area for improvement, as existing treatments often provide inadequate relief for abdominal pain and gut hypersensitivity in IBS patients 2 4 . 7. Patient Education and Collaboration Educating patients about the trial-and-error nature of IBS treatment helps set realistic expectations and reduces frustration when initial interventions do not work 1 . Shared decision-making between healthcare providers and patients ensures that treatment plans align with patient preferences and lifestyle. In summary, effective IBS management combines personalized care with dietary, behavioral, and pharmacological strategies within an integrative framework. The podcast underscores the importance of ongoing research to refine treatments and improve outcomes for IBS sufferers.…

In this episode, Dr Charlie Andrews speaks to Professor Mark Pritchard about neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) of the gastrointestinal tract. You may be asking yourself: 'Do I really need to know about NETs in primary care, aren't they extremely rare?' The answer to that is a resounding yes, you do need to know about NETs and Mark will tell you why in this episode! Neuroendocrine cancer is the 10th most prevalent cancer in England, and the second most prevalent cancer of the GI tract, with a rapidly rising incidence (371%) over the last 20 years. NETs are commonly diagnosed at a more advanced stage due to late diagnosis as the signs and symptoms can be vague, or mimic other more common conditions such as IBS. Mark provides lots of useful, practical advice about when to suspect this form of cancer in primary care, which patients may be a higher risk, and what to do if you are suspicious about this form of cancer in your patient.

Did you know that according to the British Liver Trust, up to 20% of the general population has non-alcoholic liver disease ('fatty liver disease') and the prevalence is predicted to rise over the coming years. Morbidity associated with this can be significant, with a proportion of patients with fatty liver disease developing fibrosis of the liver as the disease progresses. Diagnosing fatty liver disease and identifying those at risk of progression to fibrosis is therefore important. In this episode I speak to Dr Helen Jarvis, a GP with a specialist interest in liver disease. We discuss an approach to the patient with abnormal LFTs, and we look at the common causes of abnormal LFTs, with a particular focus on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Helen demystifies the commonly used tests for assessing for fibrosis in fatty liver disease, and how we can empower our nursing teams to assess for fatty liver disease when abnormal LFTs are identified at chronic disease reviews.…

Dyspepsia is a common presenting complaint in primary care, and encompasses a range of symptoms including GORD, nausea, and epigastric pain. Having an approach to these patients is vital given how commonly we see these symptoms, and Mike Burkitt joins me in this episode to provide a really useful overview of dyspepsia, and how we can approach this symptom in clinical practice.
